    FIFA World Cup: Scotland have drafted Manchester United teenager Tyler Fletcher into their FIFA World Cup 2026 squad after midfielder Billy Gilmour was ruled out with a knee injury sustained during Saturday's 4-1 friendly victory over Curacao at Hampden Park.

    Fletcher, 19, made his senior international debut in the same match, coming on as a half-time substitute. The midfielder was initially part of Scotland's training group and has now earned a place in the final squad following Gilmour's withdrawal.

    The son of former Scotland captain Darren Fletcher, Tyler has enjoyed a rapid rise in recent months. Despite limited first-team opportunities at Manchester United, where he has made two substitute appearances this season, the youngster has already featured twice for the national side. His twin brother, Jack Fletcher, represents England at youth level.
